Was told $28 for full hook up. Had electric and water. No sewer. Still paid $28. Grass needs mowing. Roads are barely there in the section we were in. No garbage cans on site. One picnic table for two sites. Entire section of what looks to be a junkyard with live-ins. Picture shows a beautiful pool. It is a hole in the ground with the liner all torn up in a fenced area with chickens. Very run down. Dump! - Grams and Pops

Grass needed mowing, drives gravel with pot holes. Our site was muddy and needed to have more gravel spread. Stayed here for Doctor's appointment on North side of Indianapolis. - Teacher's Pet

This park has a 10 pull through 50amp sites in an area without trees, with most of the campground's sites occupied by season campers in a woods. As in the past little has been done to correct the interior roads and pad conditions. If it rains your site will be water covered since the road is slightly higher than the campsites. Needs work, but it is close to the Indianapolis north side where we had an appointment early the next morning. This trip the voltage at the pedestal was at about 105-110V, not that way in the past. - Teacher's Pet

OK, it's February in Indianapolis and not many places were open. Surprised to see how many people are living year-around in this park and all the creative way they were using to "insulate" and "winterize" their rigs. Some rigs were in good shape, but many did not look road-worthy. A fifth wheel down the road had interconnected yurt structures and it looked like he was heating with wood. (Wood splitter next to rig.) There were trash bags scattered around the park and did not see a dumpster to dispose of trash. After going over to check out bathhouse, I decided I would not use the restrooms or showers. Stayed here in desperation--would not stay again. - RagTopDay

After reading other reviews, thought it couldn't be that bad - but it is. Grouchy, slow check in. GS discount only good for one night. Grass up to your knees, if you want it cut, you must borrow their mower and do it yourself. Muddy 'beach' Gross indoor pool. Old moldy trailers everywhere. Trash sitting around. Water was BROWN. Electric went out on us twice. Sewer hookup was crushed. Picnic table sitting in a rectangle of mud from previous occupant's mat and dog run. Management doesn't care. - cincychic

This is pretty much a typical KOA except for the service....the people at the desk were exceptional!! We pulled in a matter of minutes before closing but they still greeted us with big smiles and offered to make us a pizza and deliver it to our site. Then, when we went to pull into our site, a huge rock was in the way. It had obviously been hit by someone who didn't bother to let the staff know. So, I ran back up to the office and stopped the young people who were closing up and getting into their cars. They gladly got the backhoe out and came down - in the still pouring rain - to move the rock so we could get parked. Service like that is rare and much appreciated. The site itself was plenty long enough and fairly level gravel. All hook-ups were convenient and worked well. We didn't bother to hook up the cable but were able to get many channels from the antenna. The wi-fi was good. We would definitely stay here again. - SandyA

Indiana has one of the largest RV industries in the nation. It is fitting, therefore, that Indianapolis should have one of the best KOAs in the nation. It's not a perfect 10, mind you. It has its problems. For one thing, the office is rather challenging to get to. You have to follow a long winding road, and then pull your rig between two buildings. That done, however, the large sites are easy to get into. Moreover, they've instituted a practice that I'd like to see more frequently: They alternate the entry direction from site to site. So if I enter my site heading west, my neighbors on both sides will enter heading east. Why do I like this complicated practice? Because when I open my door to get out of my RV, or simply to enjoy the scenery, I'm looking at my neighbor's front door, not at his sewer hookup. I suspect that it also increases the social interaction between neighbors, but I have had enough experience with the practice to be sure. The campground as a whole is huge and well shaded, with a creek running down the middle. There are ample play areas for the kids, and lots of space for walking. The freeway is nearby, but the noise is not intrusive. - Jim Fulton

We enjoyed a 3 night stay here while sight seeing in Indy. This is one of the nicest KOA's we have stayed at. Our site had beautiful trees in front with a clear satellite view to the rear. Easy access, interior roads (swing wide like the sign states when going to the office), and 100'+ pull through premium sites are all big rig friendly. Tons of gravel roads, paths and grass areas to walk and ride. Super friendly family runs this campground and guide you to your site. The only negative is highway noise from 70. - barbielab

We arrived for a one nite stay with 3 granddaughters age 9, 12 & 13. No information at front desk. We were escorted to our site up a very scary hill. The Site was sufficient and across the road from bath house. We walked down another hill and played mini golf. Pool had too much chlorine for the girls to swim long. When leaving, drove down the 2nd hill, not quite as scary as the one going up. - ajoy922

This place is the best. They really cater to everything. Huge playground for kids including jump houses and a trampoline that I'd like to take a bounce on. Owner does an excellent job of keeping the place neat and tidy. - 4deepinanrv

As we approached there were no roadside signs indicating park's name or which driveway was the entrance. After we disconnected from the truck, got level, extended the slides and connected the utilities, we discovered that the power pedestal did not have power. One of the workers said that they were having trouble with the underground wiring and offered to relocate us. Later I noticed that the romex wire from one light standard to the next was laying ON TOP of the ground. The park claims to have 360 spaces but when I tried to use the only laundry I found a tiny room with just 2 washers and 2 driers, and the staff was uncertain where the closest laundromat was. The store inventory was primarily candy and chips with almost no RV or camping supplies. The overall appearance of the facilities was one of a general lack of caring. - tweymouth

New owner is on site and overly anxious to help. Sites are nice and spacious. Views are tremendous. Roads are treacherous. - 4deepinanrv

First the positives: next to a river, close to a golf course and shopping. The negatives: Over priced for the facilities, poorly kept with long grass and very poor restrooms with very primitive showers. This camp is not very big rig friendly with limbs and power lines that should be higher. Get a firm price before accepting a spot. We were quoted $35 when we made our advance reservation. The price jumped up to $38 when we arrived. We mentioned membership to FMCA and Good Sam so he discounted down to $35! I like to feel like I can trust the camp ground owner to shoot straight. We will not stay here again. It's just to primitive. - Beech35p

We loved this charming campground! The price was amazing, especially for a full hookup, and it was cleaner than the last state park we visited. The facilities are not modern, but are well-maintained. We camped less than 20 ft from the riverbank! Everyone was very friendly. We can't wait to go back and camp there again! - HomeIsWhereYouParkIt

This is a casino parking lot. Well lit, safe, very level with excellent drainage. Asphalt surface, easy in and out, space for many many campers. They welcome you to stay, hope you'll come in and spend some money. Check with security when you see one, let them know you're there. Slides out is just fine, generator is too. You will be directed to park in the "middle lot", between where the cars park and where the truckers park. Lighting is excellent, many security cameras, shuttle buses.... free. - DebbieT in Alabama

As others have said, it's a nice park, with concrete pads and grass between sites. Unusual to find FHU 50 amp sites right on a riverbank. The first site we were assigned (#91 backed up to "the pond) had branches hanging low over the site, and across the the road, where we needed to start our back in, as well. Not willing to scratch our paint or risk our A/C covers, we called the office, and they found another site for us (#37), backed up to the river. This site is a bit shorter, so we had to park our car on the grass. Watch for low hanging branches as you come through the park and over some sites. Some sites had deep puddles from the recent rains, but overall a well-organized and pleasant park. Good 50 amp power and water pressure. Power pedestal close to the front of the site, sewer in the back. Verizon LTE , but only 1-2 bars. We would return. Nearby Cicero looks looking me a nice town with multiple restaurants. Price includes a $1.00+2% service fee for credit card use. - JustUsOntheRoad

This is a county park located on the White River. It is a great transit stop if you are heading north or south along RT 31. We selected a full hookup, back-in site on the river on the front of the campground. Level, cement pads allowed us to stay hookup up. The campground is well designed and I didn't have any issue maneuvering our 32' trailer. It looks like a great location to use as a base to visit the Indianapolis area. - linnemj

This is actually the nicest campground we have found in the Indianapolis area. It is located on the White River - which, unfortunately, was chocolate when we were there as the river was high and muddy. There's a lot to do. A nearby business rents canoes. They pick you up at the campground then you canoe back. There are miles of mixed-use hiking/biking/horseback riding trails. Koteewi park is just down the road where there is an aerial park and archery activities. For the most part, it was pretty quiet at least during the week. When you make the reservation, they take the deposit by credit card and charge a processing fee of about 1.5%. When you arrive at the campground, you have the option to pay for the remaining nights with cash or check to avoid another processing fee by using a credit card. This is a nonrefundable deposit. The interior roads are narrow and make for difficult maneuvering with larger RVs. There are also some very tight turns. To make matters more interesting, cars are parked in common grass areas which provide yet another obstacle to maneuver around. Trees could use some trimming as we got up close and personal with several attempting to get into our site. Many sites need a good trimming; however, some sites have no trees at all. The pad was level concrete, and wandering around the park we noticed they all varied in length and width. Our site was long enough for the MH and car by placing our rear tires at the very end of the pad. We hugged one side to avoid trees scraping the MH. There is a small strip of grass between sites and some have trees. There is presumably WII FI by the office but didn't use it. Verizon had 4g and 2 bars so we used out hot spot. We could not get satellite due to trees. We would return but with our list of which sites suit big rigs better. - Free

This is a wonderful family park. We had never stayed in a Yogi Bear Park. The road getting into the park is about 3/8 of a mile of rough dirt road. Staff is nice and friendly. But when I asked about filling my propane tank on my MH they didn't know how. Sewer pipe was broken under ground.. When I told them about the person that came to investigate said it's been that way for a week not my job to dig. The pull through sites are gravel. Which is one of my complaints. The size of the gravel was almost fist size. Making it hard to walk and drive on. They are set up as buddy sights. There is a lot of road noise especially at night, which is why we probability would not stay again. - newbies2016

The road in along with my site were gravel/water/mud. I believe that my site and the one next to me are the Passport America sites as they appear to be the worst in the park. Very unlevel & muddy. For the price I paid the value was satisfactory. The rest of the campground looked pretty decent. - Lugnuts

Was wonderful last year. Lake is completely crusted over with algae. $17 for 8 small pieces of firewood. Drive is rough and has holes. Children's activity has been cut. Site was very unlevel. I requested a site not on the hill. Will not return. - Bobby D

I really want to love this campground - close to home, archeological site - but I can't. It's a little tired, a little dated, a little worn, a little noisy. Part of the problem is that the city of Anderson has grown up around the park. The campground abuts on Anderson Municipal Airport, so you will hear planes. It's close to railroad tracks and there are trains (and their horns) all night. The roads are tight and most campsites are at a right angle to road, rather than slanted for easier access. Despite what the official descriptions say, very few spots are level. (We had to level so much that our back wheels were off the ground in a site described as level.) There are random cars/pick-ups driving through the campground. On the good side, the staff and rangers are very nice and checked us in fast and there is a small campstore with bagged ice and ice cream. - Indybear

This park has horribly tight roads and the sites are difficult to maneuver any size RV. Sites are close and straight very few angled ones. Very disappointing for the price charged. New electric boxes no water on site. Pathetic for the price. If we had a better choice in this area we would not be here. The state of Indiana should be ashamed to treat campers and tax payers this way. Good thing we do not have a tow vehicle because there is no place to park it. - Satuthom

This park did not suit our needs. We are a senior couple traveling through, staying one night, towing a car. Check-in time on Sundays and holidays is 5:00 PM, which we did not know. So we waited in our coach over an hour in the hot sun waiting for our reserved site to become available. No pull through sites were available when we reserved a few weeks prior to arrival. So after unhitching the car and getting in our site 47 (in full sun), all we wanted was a shower and peace and quiet. The shower was awful. Cement floor, push a button inside the shower stall for 20 seconds of lukewarm water. No temperature or water pressure control. No place to put your soap or shampoo. Very low water pressure made rinsing my hair a long slow process. No exhaust fan in shower area. Very old building. That said, this would be great for families with little kids. Lots of children riding bikes and playing in the grassy area. - Breezy2011

It was ok for a couple nights so we could see the Speedway because there didn't seem to be any other place to stay. But, it's a one row strip of campsites along the fence at the back of the fairgrounds. Basically mowed weeds, dirt and rocks on a big asphalt parking lot. With trash cans. And hook-ups. I would hate to be there when it needs to be one camper per site instead of two. But, the utilities worked fine. When you drive in gate six the campground is straight ahead. Sites 1-8 don't have sewer but all of the rest do. Verizon worked well. Lots of OTA TV and no trees blocking our satellite. Some small grassy areas but overall not a very good place for dogs. We won't return, but it was ok for a couple nights because of the location. - thekites

So this one is a little sticky. I found this fairground on rv park reviews and then went on the state fairground website that instructed that there was year round camping spots available and to just go to gate 6 and pick a spot. They further instructed that security would find you and check you in. Well, we arrived and we didn't find the campground on the fairground but security and the managers were soooooo nice and accommodated us by allowing us to stay in the park a few blocks away that they used for people working the fair. They didn't have many people there yet for the fair so it was okay for one night. It was plenty big enough for the 45' coach and had lots of spaces to choose from. They were very nice about the whole thing, from start to finish. I highly recommend you call first to ask about any camping and disregard the webpage. Call the security office or the fairground to find out about options. - MEvan
